About this episode

Hey, teens of the 90s! What was THAT like? Many of us who lived out our teenage years in that wild, wild decade of the 1990s are filled with delight and cringe when we think back on those glory days. This week, Meg is joined by co-host Rebekah who unearthed a TEEN Magazine from August 1993. Together, they go peruse the pages and contemplate 90s fashion, celebrate their celebrity crushes, and conquer the ubiquitous teen mag quiz. All of that 90s nostalgia plus a treat-yourself discovery and baby's first favorite in Awesome of the Week!
